CMS Made Simple Forums

Hello,
I'm using CMSMS version 1.0.2.  I'm familar with CSS, but still just learning PHP to tweak my templates.
For the template Left Simple Navigation + 1 column.... how can I restrict the width of the vertical menu that appears in the nav sidebar?  I want to increase the width of the Content area, and lessen the width of my nav sidebar.
Thank you!

They are in the Layout: Left sidebar + 1 column... if you are using a flexible template its % if you used a fixed width it's px...

Of course if you make the sidebar narrower anything else in it will get squished such as the News...

div#main {
  margin-left: 29%; /* this will give room for sidebar to be on the left side, make sure this space is bigger than sidebar width */
  margin-right: 2%; /* and some air on the right */
}

div#sidebar {
  float: left;        /* set sidebar on the left side. Change to right to float it right instead. */
  width: 26%;    /* sidebar width, if you change this please also change #main margins */
  display: inline;  /* FIX IE double margin bug */
  margin-left: 0;
}
